  • What Is A Virtual Leak And How Does It Affect Your Vacuum System?
    A virtual leak is a trapped volume of gas within a vacuum chamber that cannot be easily pumped out due to restrictions in the path connecting the trapped gas to the main chamber. Virtual leaks reference a leak that cannot be found during any activities or tests performed outside of the vacuum
  • CASE STUDY: Leak Testing Vacuum Packaged Coffee Pouches
    The customer's product consisted of ground coffee vacuum packed and sealed into small foil packages. Because of this packaging process, there was no "head space" (air or gas space inside the package) to facilitate vacuum decay testing, so a pressure decay chamber test was designed.
  • Application Note: Vacuum Decay Testing Using a Self-Contained Vacuum Generator
    A variety of products must be leak tested by subjecting them to vacuum (negative pressure).
  • Fundamentals of Leak Detection
    Unwanted leaks in any system can easily damage expensive equipment and machinery reducing the effectiveness of the process. The primary reasons for helium leak testing are quality, reliability, personnel protection, and protecting the environment. Unforeseen issues like vacuum leaks can become
  • Principles of Operation For Force-Decay Leak Testing of Flexible Packages
    Non-destructive leak testing for flexible packages can be accomplished by several methods that utilize. various properties of the package form and materials. Techniques include vacuum bubble test, pressure/. vacuum decay, displacement change, trace gas and force-decay, and each method provides
  • What is a pressure/vacuum decay test?
    Pressure decay testing measures the change in pressure between atmospheric pressure and your pressurized test sample. Unlike some other current methods of leak testing, this test method yields quantitative information, hard data points that can be recorded and upon which decisions can be made
  • Case Study: Non-destructive Vacuum Decay Chamber Test - Blister Packs
    Problem/Goal: The customer was looking for a method to confirm. the leak integrity of medical dispenser blister. packs without destroying the package and/or. contaminating the contents. Read about the solution
  • Case Study -International Truck and Engine Corp.
    that was slow and not accurate enough. "We primarily do mass-flow, pressure decay, vacuum decay and pressure-rise leak testing on our. diesel engines to make sure the components and assemblies don't leak beyond specifications,". said Jim Bowman, senior manufacturing engineer for the Advance Manufacturing

    temperature. Other examples will include applications dealing with high pressure hydro cleaning of pipes, locating the source of a turbine boot seal leak, and the identification of a sudden large condenser vacuum leak.
